What did you think about the remake? I thought the first one was a classic and had a timeless message. This one not so much. They changed the message from anti-war to environmentalism. Which is much worse than it sounds. But it gives Keanu Reeves cool lines to play around with such as:
"The planet is dying the human race is killing it."
This just didn't seem like a classic to me. It wasn't bad and it wasn't great. Its just not as good as the original even if it did have a 1950s b movie scary feel throughout the entire thing, which I thought was one of the few high points of the film itself. State your thoughts.
